00:04:09.960 well hello stew welcome to friday glad you're here thank you glenn welcome to friday yeah
00:04:18.280 uh the uh the michael cohen testimony whoo he's such a trustworthy guy it's hard to believe that
00:04:26.020 he'd have some inconsistencies on the stand but i mean he can't can't anything's on the table these
00:04:32.020 days you know who it is amazing listen i want to play cut one anderson cooper talking about this last
00:04:39.420 night the last 20 minutes of court today right before the lunch break it was incredible i mean it was
00:04:47.400 uh you know ellie honig on on my program last night had talked about you know on on a cross
00:04:52.600 examination lawyers want to kind of put the the the witness in a you know build a box around the
00:04:58.240 witness and then slam it shut that's what todd blanche did to to michael cohen it was an extraordinary
00:05:04.520 cross-examination by todd blanche and you know michael cohen's throughout the day michael cohen when
00:05:11.100 cornered in when he found himself in a corner he does have a pattern of suddenly not understanding
00:05:17.640 the question that's being asked seemingly kind of i mean one could say buying time to try to figure out
00:05:23.180 what how he wants to answer uh but he definitely suddenly starts to you know have a todd blanche
00:05:28.700 repeat questions and say i don't quite understand what you mean i'm confused by the question uh but
00:05:33.860 this time michael cohen was was cornered in what appeared to be uh a lie i think to many in the room
00:05:42.400 and had to adjust suddenly his memory that he had just testified to on tuesday adjust his memory is a
00:05:51.720 great phrase let me play one more cut from a cnn this is an analysis uh on cnn about that moment
00:06:00.680 listen cut to i don't think i've ever seen a star cooperating witness get his knees chopped out quite
00:06:06.280 as clearly and dramatically as what just happened with michael cohen i've certainly seen very effective
00:06:11.300 cross-examinations of cooperating witnesses i've seen aspects of their story cut into and called into
00:06:17.260 question but this goes to the heart of the allegation here that phone call on october 24th and it looks to
00:06:23.080 the jury and to anderson cooper and caris cannell and judge george grasso who are all in the in the
00:06:27.760 courthouse that that was a devastating moment so here's what happened michael cohen is on the stand
00:06:34.460 and he's testifying about a phone call that happened the whole case is really pinned to this phone call
00:06:41.780 and uh michael cohen has been saying yeah i called the boss and uh i told him we're going through with
00:06:48.780 a deal need your approval okay well what michael cohen didn't know apparently is that the uh defense
00:06:57.060 had all of the text messages between michael cohen and the guy he actually called which was uh trump's
00:07:05.940 uh you know security guy keith schiller yeah yeah and so he was texting back and forth because michael
00:07:14.220 cohen was having some 14 year old hassle him and making crank phone calls to his phone which makes me
00:07:21.200 happy i'd love to know who that 14 year old kid is i'd like to give him some meat um but anyway
00:07:26.440 he uh uh he he's writing and texting back to the security and saying this kid is is uh constantly
00:07:35.320 calling me what do i do how do i do it who do i talk to and the security guy says uh i can help
00:07:42.320 call me that was two minutes before the phone call so they started with the testimony saying
00:07:50.120 really so uh you were calling trump it looks like you didn't talk to trump it looks like you talked
00:07:57.160 to security what did you talk about well i told him we were gonna get really because two minutes before
00:08:03.620 you're asking him about a phone call and he says call me and you called him right back well that was
00:08:11.360 part of it and the whole thing fell apart from there yeah i mean this is devastating yeah i mean
00:08:18.580 the claim by cohen now again there's been he's told every version of the story so the whole point
00:08:25.500 of this is we're supposed to believe him today and not the other times he's told the story but
00:08:30.040 on the stand it seemed to change basically he says he they had this text exchange about the
00:08:37.180 the 14 year old and if you didn't think cohen please if you're the 14 year old or know the 14
00:08:42.320 year old please have him call me he's not 14 anymore but yes i know but i would love to i'd love
00:08:49.500 to hear his story yes uh so for he's a 14 year old he's pranking cohen um and you know apparently
00:08:56.420 cohen has an issue figuring out who he's talking to he's talking to actually a 14 year old so they're
00:09:02.620 having a back and forth they think this might be a problem they they call schiller they have a text
00:09:07.640 message about exchange about this with schiller then he calls schiller and cohen's testimony is
00:09:14.500 basically he talks to him and has a full conversation about the 14 year old prank calls
00:09:21.660 and then also has a conversation about the stormy daniels payment but wait wait wait on tuesday
00:09:30.140 he didn't mention the other part right he didn't mention the 14 year old right no i know this is
00:09:35.600 this is his i'm trying to keep these all separate this is his new telling of the story right right the
00:09:40.100 new telling is he has this conversation and he has a conversation with another person on the same call
00:09:46.080 which is donald trump and he updates him on the stormy daniel case this all occurs in 96 seconds
00:09:53.740 now look it's not impossible i guess if just everyone goes okay all right here he is okay bye like i i guess
00:10:06.560 all that detail could theoretically be jammed into 96 seconds there's not a chance sense he's he the first
00:10:13.680 the email the first email about that 14 year old kid is this kid is calling me i don't know what to do
00:10:20.080 blah blah blah the guy says call me just explaining explaining that right it that's 90 seconds that's
00:10:28.160 a minute and a half just explaining that what do you then say about the trump thing oh tell donald trump
00:10:35.140 we're gonna be doing the you know we're doing the cash thing too click i mean that makes no sense
00:10:40.960 and if it was done that way there what there was no conversation he just blurted it out yeah
00:10:50.820 it is fascinating and it's fascinating to think about separately from just the trump uh legal
00:10:56.180 ramifications of this but just the the michael cohen ramifications think this is a guy who was in
00:11:02.620 front of everyone's face lying constantly constantly when he was on when he was employed by donald trump
00:11:09.780 yeah and to the point of that like every i mean i didn't know a lot of conservatives who liked him
00:11:13.280 but certainly every liberal hated him and now cohen has reversed course completely and is now lying
00:11:22.040 against donald trump and of course has received largely what you'd expect from the media which is
00:11:28.600 all of a sudden this newfound credibility all of a sudden they love him and all of a sudden he's
00:11:33.080 best friends now he's lost everybody on the right right so now the only thing he has left is on the left
00:11:37.700 but the only thing he has remaining is on the left glenn what happens to this guy if they don't get this
00:11:44.400 conviction he is going to have no friends everyone is going to hate this guy you know he'll get what
00:11:52.400 he deserves he'll get he'll get the life that he deserves which is to be completely discredited as
00:11:58.100 somebody who is an alcoholic um and lost my credibility when i was it when i hit bottom i hit i lost my
00:12:06.720 family i lost absolutely everything i was living in a in an apartment stew was an intern at the time
00:12:15.760 we lived in the same building that's true uh i mean i was at rock bottom i was literally making
00:12:24.560 zero dollars an hour and had the same uh and this was in the same apartment building as you uh so you
00:12:31.360 know and when you lose everything i found when i was literally down on my knees feeling sorry for
00:12:39.700 myself i remember praying lord all i want back is my name i just want my credibility i will do
00:12:49.240 whatever you tell me to do i just want to be able to look at people in the eye and say this is what i
00:12:56.080 believe is true and for them to at least consider that i'm telling the truth when you lose your
00:13:04.380 credibility you have nothing so this guy is about to receive the worst punishment i think that you and
00:13:11.880 it's and it's always self-imposed well not always in today's world but it's usually self-imposed
00:13:17.240 you've just lied to everybody and you've burned every bridge and that's usually what an alcoholic does
00:13:24.960 just to hide their alcoholism uh and there's nothing more valuable you can lose everything
00:13:30.980 but if you lose your word and your honor you have nothing nothing believe me i've been there now i'm
00:13:40.560 going to take a quick break and i'm going to come back because there's one part of this story that
00:13:44.340 happened yesterday that i find absolutely incredible and it happened right after the testimony and it has
00:13:53.340 nothing to do with the media i'll tell you that coming up in 60 seconds stand by first rough greens
00:13:59.860 so you know uh you you eat food that you like the taste of right ignoring good nutrition sometime
00:14:07.760 you know that's a bad idea look at me okay that's kind of what you turn into but what if the food you
00:14:15.560 were eating wasn't uh just healthy but also tasted good well that's what you can give to your dog uh you
00:14:23.660 know they spray on the flavor of kibble it has no flavor they take all of the ingredients and they
00:14:29.520 cook it at such a high temperature it kills everything living then at the end of the process
00:14:36.700 they spray chicken flavor on it yummy right can you imagine feeding that to your children
00:14:43.400 you would never do that you love your dog they need all of the nutrition that you get with rough
00:14:50.180 greens it's not a dog food it's a supplement developed by naturopathic dr dennis black my dog
00:14:55.760 now races to the bowl and i tell you i swear to you i mean if you listen to me long enough you know
00:15:01.900 because i complained about it for years i had to practically hand feed the dog he would just not
00:15:07.500 eat folks at rough greens confident that your dog is going to love it but they don't want you spending
00:15:12.360 any money that you don't have to if your dog doesn't like it so they're going to send you a

00:15:31.700 10 seconds station id okay so after the uh the testimony yesterday matt gates and the house
00:15:53.780 freedom caucus who are in the courtroom voluntarily every day to support donald trump
00:16:00.820 came out and here's what matt gates said listen well honored to be here with my colleagues from
00:16:06.620 the house freedom caucus where we watched michael cohen get dog walked through the series of lies he
00:16:14.080 has told there is literally no branch of government that michael cohen has not lied to he lied to
00:16:20.420 investigators he lied to the judge who sentenced him he lied to the united states congress and he
00:16:25.820 committed these lies for his own benefit and while we're talking about what we saw in that courtroom
00:16:32.040 going on for people's own benefit we would be remiss if we did not mention this corrupt judge this
00:16:39.420 judge whose own family is making six figures off of democrat politics that continues to gaslight the
00:16:46.860 country that there's some sort of crime committed by president trump this is a made-up crime no other
00:16:53.560 american in the country would be charged with this type of crime it's like the mr potato head doll of
00:16:59.260 crimes where they had to stick together a bunch of things that did not belong together observing the
00:17:05.480 jury i could see that there was a great appreciation for the liar that michael cohen was and we are not
00:17:11.580 getting a fair shake in front of this judge the uh the prosecutors don't even have to state the basis
00:17:16.860 for their objections he's agreeing with the prosecutors without even hearing argument on these
00:17:22.220 objections and there should be evidence getting in about the depth and breadth of michael cohen's lies
00:17:28.400 that we're not seeing entered into it okay so there's the he's surrounded by the freedom caucus
00:17:35.480 i think that's significant freedom caucus and donald trump don't always agree the freedom caucus is
00:17:43.720 constitutional small government small spending etc etc and donald trump i think has had a problem with
00:17:51.160 some members of the freedom caucus in the past the freedom caucus is now showing up taking time for
00:17:58.840 them for their from their day and showing up and showing support and sitting behind donald trump
00:18:05.720 donald trump appreciates loyalty he appreciates people who will stand with him in tough times this is
00:18:15.560 the smartest move the freedom caucus can do you'll notice that the regular democrat republican isn't there you'll
00:18:23.240 notice mitch mcconnell's not taking time to be there donald trump will remember who supported him
00:18:29.960 and i think this is the most significant thing that that i have seen in a long time and strategically brilliant
00:18:38.760 yeah do you think glenn too i mean this not you've seen a certain uh you know number of of republican
00:18:47.880 politicians come in here we saw jd vance there it does seem like he's bringing in also the vice
00:18:54.200 presidential like you know the people at the final table of the apprentice if you will to kind of come
00:19:00.360 in here and say okay i'm in this moment i can't defend myself what can you do on my behalf oh yeah
00:19:08.040 and it seems like you know this is almost like we're happy we're seeing an episode of the apprentice
00:19:13.240 sort of play out live right so i think that that is true when it comes to the individuals that he's
00:19:19.160 considering for president but that was a crowd that was the freedom caucus that's interesting yeah yeah they
00:19:25.400 were all there they're not all running for vice president no they're showing their block is with
00:19:32.120 him and i think you know donald trump could have made and i shouldn't say this this way the left could
00:19:40.840 have made a lot of inroads with donald trump if they wouldn't have treated him like a monster he he will
00:19:49.400 listen he'll talk to dictators and he will you know work with anyone if they show him respect and he
00:19:58.680 feels like he's not under attack by them if you attack donald trump he's done with you done trust me i
00:20:07.000 know done with you um again to this to the point you're making here he's also you know willing to
00:20:15.400 consider he's forgiving he is he wants but he won't be forgiving you you have to actually he called
00:20:22.280 me the day i made good on my promise uh of saying i was wrong and i said it because he was doing things
00:20:31.080 that i said on the air before he was elected he will never do these things he's a big new york guy
00:20:38.600 don't trust him he'll never do these things and i said if he does i'll be the first to admit that i
00:20:45.560 was wrong well he did them i don't remember what the last one was it may have been jerusalem i'm not
00:20:50.680 sure but he did a whole bunch of stuff and he was making great decisions and i said on the air i
00:20:57.640 apologized to the president i apologized to the audience i was wrong he called me that day and said thank
00:21:05.320 you uh and we've had a good relationship ever since and we don't agree on stuff that phone
00:21:10.600 call lasted i don't know 40 minutes 30 minutes and we talked about china and things that we disagreed
00:21:16.520 with and he was open to hearing my uh my point of view he asked my point of view on a few things
00:21:24.360 and on china he just said glenn we're never going to agree on this i'm sorry i'm doing this and it was
00:21:30.840 fine he works with people he will never work with the democrats because of what they've done
00:21:38.600 but the and and i think he hates the gop almost as much and if the gop would work with him and treat
00:21:46.760 him right when he gets in he will work with them but the freedom caucus standing now at his hour of need
00:21:54.920 in mass not just individuals but in mass that's going to be significant in his presidency coming
00:22:03.720 and glenn one of the things you've maintained over this entire period when
00:22:07.800 donald trump did not like you so much and when he does is the ability to still say things against him
00:22:13.640 when he's wrong um and but like that and i have too like i'll still be critical of trump i don't care
00:22:20.200 but at the end of the day this is the worst case i've ever seen brought against like a citizen in
00:22:25.720 the united states oh no this case is such nonsense i would be happy to say it i would maybe not happy
00:22:32.280 but i would be okay saying it if it was the opposite it's just not this is terrible
00:22:42.120 thank you so much for listening today i want to talk to you i just had a very close jewish friend over uh
00:22:47.880 he flew in for some business here in dallas he had a dinner last night with me and we spent a lot of
00:22:53.240 time talking about israel and america he's i'm concerned about israel he's concerned about america
00:22:59.160 we both think i don't know we're gonna make it but uh things are dicey in israel still really dicey and
00:23:07.000 not sure which way it is going to go um we have the demonstrations on the streets and he told me last
00:23:14.280 night israel is seeing it and they can't believe what's happening in america and the rest of the
00:23:21.320 world after october 7th israel needs our support one way you can support is the international
00:23:28.040 fellowship of christians and jews they're on the ground in israel every single day when while we're

00:23:55.320 888-488-IFC-J
00:24:09.480 hello america it's friday you know glenn we had this situation with cohen testifying
00:24:32.360 and saying one thing on the stand where sort of there's like almost like a parallel trial going on
00:24:38.280 at the same time where i mean where you have it's not really a trial but it's an attorney and
00:24:45.400 it's sort of like i mean there's testimony going on at the house that is vitally important to what
00:24:52.280 we're talking about here this is um this is the cohen's former attorney costello is his name
00:24:58.680 robert costello robert costello and he was the attorney if you think about the timeline of cohen
00:25:04.600 cohen's a big trump guy he gets raided and in that moment he needs an attorney and he gets robert
00:25:11.320 costello to be his attorney now in the interim since that went on cohen allowed uh costello to
00:25:19.560 get out of his attorney client privilege why that part i don't actually remember i i remember going
00:25:27.400 through this a while ago and trying to understand that and i don't remember how that ended up i i think
00:25:32.600 you know i mean cohen was certainly trying to portray to everyone that he was completely an
00:25:37.000 open book and he didn't care about what anyone you know said about him um and he you know he was
00:25:41.880 transparent now and he's had this big awakening i don't know if it was part of that process or what
00:25:47.880 but basically costello is now free to talk about his conversations in private with cohen and go on
00:25:54.200 television and talk about it so let me give you let me set this up with a clip uh of him this is a
00:26:01.080 longer clip but it's of house testimony where costello is talking about what cohen told him
00:26:08.360 in this moment in 2018 and keep in mind this is a weird period he hasn't fully turned on trump at this
00:26:14.680 point but he is panicking and remember he's not panicking he didn't get in trouble over the stuff he
00:26:20.360 had to do with donald trump this was stuff that he had cohen had on his own like issues with taxi
00:26:27.080 medallions yeah and a bunch of nonsense and tax issues and he was in serious trouble for hang on
00:26:33.160 just a taxi medallions are a new york thing you have to have this big metal medallion on the hood
00:26:39.240 of your taxi no that's not that's not what no no it's not taxi medallions like that no no was it so
00:26:46.440 tax i mean maybe with michael cohen i would not be surprised if that's what he thought they were when he
00:26:52.040 bought them but no uh medallions are basically like a a pass you there's only a certain amount
00:26:56.920 of medallions they give out and if you get a medallion yeah yeah you can you drive a cab around
00:27:01.800 the city exactly right they're very those those those are marked on the car by this medallion that
00:27:07.560 they put on okay and it they're hundreds of thousands of dollars hundreds of thousands of
00:27:13.480 dollars i don't know i was picturing michael cohen with a giant gold chain as you said that
00:27:17.400 no no no no okay no no yes but yeah that's it's basically the rights to to have a cap now there's
00:27:23.800 a limited number of them so they became very expensive the very typical thing governments do
00:27:28.120 right they they they put a false scarcity on a market uh it makes these things really expensive
00:27:34.200 people come in they buy them they sell them they try to make lots of money now of course
00:27:38.360 uber came around and blew this whole this whole thing up so anyway he had all sorts of problems
00:27:44.120 tied to that and other business dealings that we don't have time to get into but the bottom line
00:27:47.880 was this was a very desperate moment for him and i want to bring this now back to uh the uh the
00:27:54.280 testimony in the house this is his former attorney at that time robert costella through further
00:28:00.520 cross-examination cohen told me that he knew there was money missing from the trump inauguration
00:28:05.000 i see where you are now okay and then on the next page um into that first paragraph cohen decided
00:28:10.840 that while he didn't believe the allegation of the stormy daniels story um that he thought the
00:28:17.080 story would be embarrassing for trump and especially for melania so he decided he would
00:28:20.840 take care of it himself absolutely and that is contrary to what this guy testified to in court in
00:28:27.080 new york yesterday well and what's not being talked about is your next paragraph like the reason
00:28:32.040 in his motivation for that so if you could just kind of walk through that for the committee
00:28:35.640 yeah obviously uh when we started to talk about the ndas and this is the very first meeting at the
00:28:42.920 regency hotel when by the way rudy giuliani was not involved in representing donald trump at that time
00:28:50.200 pohn testified that it was a conspiracy between giuliani and costello as of this date totally false
00:28:57.560 in any event he also said that he didn't discuss the storm stormy daniels matter with us and he certainly
00:29:03.320 did i specifically asked him because he kept on going back saying i can't believe they're trying
00:29:08.600 to put me in jail for these ndas so i said michael tell me about the nda tell me about stormy daniels
00:29:14.120 what did you do he said i got a call from from a lawyer representing stormy daniels who represented
00:29:20.520 that she was going to testify that donald trump had sex with stormy daniels michael cohen said i didn't
00:29:27.640 believe the allegation but i knew that such an allegation would be terribly embarrassing he said
00:29:33.240 it would be embarrassing he focused on melania trump he said i didn't want to embarrass melania
00:29:40.120 trump he said that's why i decided to take care of this on my own i went back to that several times
00:29:46.680 you did this on your own on my own did donald trump have anything to do with it no did you get the money
00:29:52.520 from donald trump no from any of his organizations no from anybody connected to donald trump no where
00:29:59.240 did you get the money i took out a heloc loan against my property i said why would you do that
00:30:05.320 he said i didn't want anybody to know where i got this money i didn't want melania to know i didn't
00:30:10.920 want my own wife to know because she's in charge he said of the cohen family finances he said if she
00:30:16.760 saw money coming out of my account she'd ask me a hundred questions and i didn't want to answer any of
00:30:21.560 them it was clear after talking to him for several days after that whenever we talked on the phone or in
00:30:29.080 my office that he kept on bringing up the subject that he felt he was betrayed by not being brought
00:30:34.840 down to washington dc this guy thought he said to me that he should have been attorney general of the
00:30:41.160 united states or at least the chief assistant to the president ludicrous but that's what he thought
00:30:47.080 and he was very angry about that he wanted to do something to put himself back into the inner circle
00:30:53.320 of donald trump that's why he took care of this on his own it had to be a motivation michael
00:30:59.080 cohen is always working for things that benefit himself and that's what he was doing here that's
00:31:05.320 completely different to what he said that he told the grand jury that's completely different to what
00:31:10.200 he's testifying to in new york nobody has heard this side of the equation right when this is incredible
00:31:17.320 because this is michael cohen's former lawyer who michael cohen gave him permission to you know
00:31:24.040 violate attorney client privilege that is absolutely absolutely falls directly in line with who we know
00:31:35.480 michael cohen is i mean yes it does and that and the grand jury wouldn't listen to this they they tried
00:31:43.160 to cut him off cut him off cut him off listen to this this is when was this clip from fox it's a
00:31:47.800 couple days ago but this is uh from fox news before i testified on a monday before the grand jury
00:31:54.600 uh i gave alvin bragg's assistant da's the courtesy of about an hour and a half zoom conference where i
00:32:02.520 told them all of the exculpatory material that i had that they were supposed to put before the grand jury
00:32:09.560 but when i appeared before the grand jury uh they were asking me questions that in my opinion and
00:32:16.680 i've been a federal prosecutor myself i was deputy chief of the criminal division in the southern
00:32:21.080 district of new york those questions they were asking me were not going to elicit the exculpatory
00:32:27.240 information that i had so i began to expand upon my answers and the da's office was trying to shut me
00:32:34.760 down saying that i had finished my answer and i told them that um when i'm in the middle of answering
00:32:41.080 a question i'll decide when i finish my answer and i asked them not to interrupt me again but basically
00:32:46.760 they only put in a small uh cherry-picked group of emails i presented maybe two to three hundred emails
00:32:54.840 and text messages to them i had them with me luckily in chronological order they put two or three
00:33:00.920 in to evidence i asked them are you going to put the rest of them into evidence and they said no
00:33:07.960 what's fascinating about this a couple of things glenn is costello is not like a michael cohen he's not
00:33:14.200 just some like crappy attorney as he mentions he's had like high level jobs he was a prosecutor he's done
00:33:19.960 all of this stuff he's well respected actual yeah yeah respected attorney yes there's no there's no
00:33:25.960 debate about that and what he's saying he did is he went to alvin bragg and said hey like you guys
00:33:32.440 should know this stuff like you're in the middle of going through this and you don't you're not aware
00:33:37.400 that this guy has told the exact opposite story let me lay it out to you he basically warns them
00:33:44.680 don't go forward with this because you don't have all the information they take that information and when
00:33:49.160 they talk to him specifically design design questions so that he won't be able to get to
00:33:56.680 the information he's brought in and he realizes this as someone who's gone through this process he
00:34:02.760 he's a former prosecutor he knows how this stuff works so he realizes they're trying to lead him
00:34:08.520 away from the stuff that will actually make michael cohen look bad and he of course has a major issue
00:34:16.520 with this glenn i i mean i i don't know i mean if you were the donald if you're donald trump you're
00:34:23.000 looking at this and things have gone pretty well for you in this trial oh my god do you extend this
00:34:27.880 and call costello to the stand next week i would i absolutely would and because he's not a he's not a
00:34:35.480 friendly witness he's a neutral witness he's just telling the truth uh and has the stuff to back it up
00:34:43.720 i have to tell you still as i'm listening to this all i can think of is who do i know that is a
00:34:49.960 credible investigative journalist that will do all of the homework and join with me to write a book on
00:34:58.600 the attempted assassination of the president of the united states because all of the information now is
00:35:06.040 there and these this whole thing from uh you know the um russia gate all of this stuff we now have the
00:35:17.480 truth but nobody's tied all of it together to show you this plot we know it we've lived it but somebody
00:35:26.760 needs to document in hard facts the entire plot from 2015 all the way to today because i've never
00:35:39.000 seen anything like it and no one has paid a price for it it's it's extraordinary in american history
00:35:47.240 i don't i don't think there's ever been anything like this and this is a modern day assassination
00:35:53.240 attempt you and i both know and i i hate to even address stuff like this but you and i both know
00:36:00.440 there are those people and i don't know who they are and i don't know how many there are but there are
00:36:05.400 those people that hate donald trump so much because they will destroy because he will destroy their plans
00:36:12.280 for a new world order they will they would at least consider an actual assassination if this doesn't work
00:36:21.880 uh and that's terrifying but this is a modern day assassination of a man's character uh and it it's
00:36:32.440 it's the a gigantic conspiracy that is now out in the open in in the sense of the clarence thomas
00:36:41.080 high-tech lynching right it's that yeah same type of approach exactly right um so do you buy the the
00:36:47.560 the left-wing pushback on costello is basically that at this time uh cohen had not turned against
00:36:55.960 donald trump so the idea is that cohen goes in there he's still defending donald trump because
00:37:03.320 he has not turned on him yet and he's saying all these things which is essentially his public line
00:37:07.320 i know it was me i did it they had nothing to do with it i don't think they slept together all this
00:37:11.400 stuff and costello gets that out of him and the idea is costello had a relationship with giuliani
00:37:19.960 which is he kind of brought that up in one of the clips he's being accused essentially of being a
00:37:23.880 setup uh trump so trump gives him cohen or trump gives him costella because he knows he'll get this
00:37:29.720 out of him and then he can use it against him later okay so here's how i would respond to that uh
00:37:35.000 uh first of all uh explain the testimony yesterday from cohen uh explain it you can't you now know and
00:37:45.800 and even cnn has admitted it looks very much like he lied okay so we know who he is we know he's lied
00:37:55.640 in the past um and now a credible uh attorney under oath uh who is able to say attorney client
00:38:04.680 privilege who has no record of being a liar uh he comes and he says this so wait a minute so you
00:38:13.800 the left they knew that cohen was lying under donald trump and so did we when he was a friend of donald
00:38:20.600 trump we knew he was lying so he was a liar then we know from yesterday he's a liar now this attorney
00:38:29.080 says um he's not only a liar but alvin bragg is so distorting the truth that he's a liar but forget
00:38:39.400 about al uh bragg just look at cohen when do you how do you pick and choose when cohen is lying you can't
00:38:50.040 he has no credibility he cannot you you cannot trust a word he says and this guy hasn't lied
00:39:00.200 least that i know of so he has credibility as an as a credible attorney the only thing they can do is
00:39:08.440 again assassinate a man's character our sponsor uh pre-born so let me tell you about pre-born i i

00:44:30.680 first our sponsor is relief factor i don't need to tell you how important a good night's sleep is and
00:44:36.280 there's nothing like waking up in the morning and feeling refreshed right you get up i love
00:44:40.760 those nights i had to sleep the other night where i woke up at midnight and i thought oh
00:44:45.800 jesus time to get up and then i woke up again at three o'clock and i'm like oh jesus time to get up
00:44:50.760 and then when my alarm woke up went off i was awake and refreshed it was the best night sleep
00:44:57.720 i've had in a long time thank you relief factor relief factor we've been calling it relief factor

00:45:41.720 great way to fall asleep naturally
00:45:48.440 so stew i i find this a little bit frivolous um but not really i also find it incredibly important because
00:45:59.160 what is the thing that i've said i'm looking for that would happen before civil war
00:46:06.760 oh uh it's amazing that you can ask these questions out of nowhere and i think i know
00:46:10.360 where you're going yeah um it's the guy who was caned in the in the house in the senate senate thanks
00:46:17.400 thank you yes yes charles sumner yes senator he's standing in the well of the senate senate and he says
00:46:23.400 yes basically neither the whigs or the democrats republicans didn't exist you neither party is
00:46:29.800 serious about you talk a good game on uh on slavery whigs but you're not going to do anything and the
00:46:37.160 south and the democrats are sleeping with the whore of slavery uh and uh congressmen from the south
00:46:45.720 heard about it walked into the senate walked down the the aisle went to the well where he was speaking
00:46:53.800 he had a very heavy cane with a with a brass end on it uh and used it as a baseball bat and nearly beat this
00:47:02.600 guy to death uh he sumner never really fully recovered and that guy just like today just like today
00:47:10.600 the guy who hit him walked off he hit him so hard he broke the cane the only reason why he didn't kill
00:47:19.400 him is because he was able to crawl under a desk where the guy couldn't hit him in the head anymore
00:47:25.160 um that guy was never charged never questioned never stopped and the democrats because they were so pro
00:47:34.520 slavery the democrats a couple of weeks afterwards actually made chains that they wore outside of
00:47:42.680 their collars with a little teeny cane on it basically saying you go ahead try take us on nothing's gonna
00:47:51.720 happen to us okay i mean does that sound familiar so i've been waiting for this and not in anticipation
00:47:59.720 just as a big warning sign i'm not sure if we had an episode of dynasty or if we had the beginning
00:48:09.080 of the fight uh this is marjorie uh taylor green against jasmine crockett they're in a hearing room
00:48:19.000 uh and uh well let me just just play what started it all i don't think you know what you're here for

00:53:27.000 again for the second time yes i'll start my words but i'm not apologizing without objection without
00:53:32.920 that is absolutely unacceptable how dare you uh uh uh let me ask you
00:53:39.800 are we getting healthier as a country or sicker as a country are is what's happening in congress better
00:53:51.880 than it was four years ago and i'm telling you four years ago it was nuts but is it better than it was
00:53:59.800 four years ago or worse than it was four years ago is is our political system more trust
00:54:09.720 worthy than it was four years ago or less trustworthy than it was four years ago is our judicial system
00:54:17.880 more trustworthy or less trustworthy i mean this is this is so easy to answer if people get out of their
00:54:30.040 out of their teams it's so easy to see let me play cut four here on small businesses listen to this
00:54:39.720 recent report by alignable research center found that 43 of small businesses that rent across the
00:54:47.240 country were unable to pay their rent in full last month this high of a delinquency rate hasn't been seen
00:54:54.040 since the heart of the pandemic and is up four percent from just one year ago okay 43 of small
00:55:04.360 businesses couldn't pay their rent in full last month 43 of small businesses this is compared to when the
00:55:17.000 government shut everything down and small businesses had to pay their rent when they had zero customers okay
00:55:26.600 43 of all small businesses what who creates jobs in this country it's the small business they create
00:55:36.280 between 70 and 80 percent of all jobs are created by small businesses the trump tax cuts uh it will make
00:55:45.880 the small business tax when they expire which joe biden said we are gonna let that expire that's gotta stop it's all
00:55:53.000 for it means that small businesses their taxes will go up by 20 percent if they can't pay their rent now
00:56:04.680 how are they going to pay an extra 20 percent is that a better plan than we had under trump or a worse plan
00:56:13.720 give me the cut five please so here's the breakdown when it comes to groceries we're going to show you on the
00:56:20.760 screen because year to year it's up by over one percent and since the pandemic up by 25 so people are
00:56:32.600 really feeling it at home they're cutting down on their budgets feeding a family of four now is almost
00:56:39.880 an average of a thousand dollars a month that is a lot of money um a thousand dollars a month
00:56:51.160 since the pandemic and then it never came down why part of the reason all of the new rules from the wef
00:57:01.240 all the things that the government is doing to squeeze farmers out of business and make it all go to big
00:57:09.240 farm grocery prices are up since biden took office by 25 percent and they're still going up
00:57:19.320 up up up one percent this year not going down but up is your life easier is it easier to feed your family or
00:57:30.360 harder to feed your family are the policies that the president is proposing all of the spending on you know
00:57:39.000 uh god only knows uh queer butts uh studies in the congo uh is that helping you or is that directly
00:57:51.400 hurting you oh god it's really easy america back in just a second tunnel to towers is our fun uh is our
00:58:03.560 sponsor ever since 9 11 tunnel to towers foundation has been helping out america's greatest heroes and
00:58:08.520 their families they started because they saw all of these cops and all of these firefighters that were
00:58:14.440 running up into the towers and they're like we gotta take care of their families and it was just an
00:58:19.400 emotional outpouring uh of their founder and he's like we're we've got to take care of them then we
00:58:26.040 went to war and we saw all of the injured come back and and the dead and you know the government
00:58:33.160 pays these people garbage don't worry though congress makes you know 200 grand a year but they pay our
00:58:39.240 soldiers garbage and really honestly don't take care of them and so tunnel to towers said we're gonna do
00:58:45.720 that too they provide mortgage free homes for the people who have lost a loved one in the line of
00:58:51.720 duty and that's cops firefighters or soldiers they're working tirelessly to get homes for homeless
00:59:00.520 veterans my god we're putting people and feeding them who have come here illegally and our veterans are
00:59:10.040 homeless is that getting better or worse america more than 95 cents of every dollar you donate to
00:59:17.880 tunnel to towers goes directly to their program they're asking if you would donate eleven dollars a
00:59:21.880 month to tunnel to towers at t2t.org that's t the number two t dot org 10 seconds station id
00:59:38.040 all right there's a couple of things uh yesterday uh we had the um the mom on from north carolina and i
00:59:47.640 about blew a gasket uh and uh uh i i it just did it bother you stew as much as me you know it's interesting
00:59:58.680 because i i thought the story was really terrible uh it was the story of a mom trying to fight for her
01:00:04.600 kid who's you know you know wrongly targeted at a school if you missed the story and um and while i
01:00:11.880 did have a lot of anger about it it it struck me as one that was you know like we've heard the story
01:00:18.440 a lot and it seems to be happening so often you but you seem to have an elevated uh sense of emotion
01:00:25.640 over it i mean it really seemed to piss you off i mean do we do we know where this is going yeah we do
01:00:31.400 and i have i have some emails and i have some uh posts and uh we're going to get back to this
01:00:39.720 uh monday but i i just want the school board in what was the name of the county do you remember
01:00:45.640 i believe it was davidson davidson uh north carolina i just want the school board to know

01:00:57.720 uh on the air monday it's not going to make you look good um so maybe you know you would resign
01:01:06.040 uh those who have have just smeared this woman i think the reason why um and this was one of my
01:01:14.840 things with obama with his you know collective justice bullcrap collective salvation jesus christ
01:01:23.320 came down sacrificed himself and rose from the dead for the individual he did it for you he did it for
01:01:33.720 me he didn't do it for the collective he did it for the individual and when the individual actually
01:01:43.160 accepts that atonement and it changes their life as it has mine i was not this guy uh i i just i just
01:01:52.920 wasn't i fired a guy once for bringing the wrong pin to me because i needed a sharpie at a signing and
01:02:00.360 i actually fired him for bringing uh the wrong pin and i thought it was reasonable i was a monster
01:02:09.000 and the lord changed my life and i have worked really hard to not be that guy to be
01:02:18.280 i hate to say this because i am so not but as christ-like as i as i can and i work every day on
01:02:28.120 it and for somebody it bothered me for a long time when when the press was coming after me and calling me
01:02:36.280 a liar and everything else but i've just gone numb inside on that because i work hard on my credibility
01:02:42.600 if you're a long-term listener you know i will apologize for my mistakes i will lead with my mistakes
01:02:48.760 because i'm trying to get it right um but this mom they she served time in jail she served time then her
01:02:59.480 life changed so much that she started working with the i don't know county or the state to be able to
01:03:07.960 help others kids that were in their 20s like she was when she went to jail for drugs and she's trying
01:03:16.200 to help them not make the same mistake and you can hear it in this woman she's a good woman that has
01:03:23.720 learned from her mistakes she has paid the price she has accepted the atonement of christ and for
01:03:31.240 these people to take her on and smear her and use her past when she has done it it is one of my
01:03:39.480 favorite books is les miserables it's jean valjean how dare you that's what motivates me and we're taking

01:05:58.120 is joining us ken paxton uh that should be kind of an explosive uh interview coming up yeah they had
01:06:04.920 this big story yesterday where governor abbott pardoned a guy daniel perry you might remember
01:06:11.240 the story from back in the black lives matter uh 2020 days there was a protest that went on
01:06:18.040 perry claimed that he shot a guy named garrett foster in self-defense as protesters were banging
01:06:23.480 on his car um there was a trial an eight-day trial this the jury wound up saying he was guilty
01:06:31.640 of murder uh and again like the long story and we'll get into the details on it but uh there was
01:06:38.920 some time in between this and and yesterday um governor abbott came out and a full pardon to this guy
01:06:45.960 it was uh something that there's a bunch of process that had to lead us to this moment but i mean you
01:06:51.160 know go you know paxton uh i'm you know i'm sure he's on the same side as this and i will be
01:06:56.280 interested to hear the back behind the scenes part of this situation this was justice this was
01:07:04.200 absolute justice he'll explain why uh coming up in just a few minutes i've got a couple of things
01:07:09.720 to say here and uh steven in master control i'm going to use uh sought sheet two the latest clips uh
01:07:17.080 not the early morning clips um i i want to talk to you about the kansas city kicker i don't know
01:07:23.960 anything about this guy um other than i'm a fan of kansas city my son my cousin my son we watch
01:07:30.200 kansas city we root for the kansas city chiefs uh i've seen him you know kick but i don't know
01:07:35.320 anything about he's awesome he is probably either the best or the second best kicker in the league
01:07:39.160 that's what my son says so um harrison uh butker is his name and he was asked at the benedictine college
01:07:46.360 benedictine college what comes to mind when i say benedictine
01:07:56.440 do you have anything comes to mind stew catholic hey thank you catholic benedictine it's not it's not
01:08:04.200 like yeah that's the stuff uh you know when i have itchy skin my mom used to rub it on my arms no
01:08:11.160 benedictine benedictine a catholic college he gives his speech i i want to play cut one on
01:08:19.880 sought sheet two please kansas city kicker blast biden in grad speech bad policies and poor leadership
01:08:26.200 have negatively impacted major life issues things like abortion ivf surrogacy euthanasia as well as a
01:08:34.360 growing support for degenerate cultural values and media all stem from the pervasiveness of disorder
01:08:41.240 our own nation is led by a man who publicly and proudly proclaims his catholic faith but at the same
01:08:47.000 time is delusional enough to make the sign of the cross during a pro-abortion rally he has been so
01:08:53.640 vocal in his support for the murder of innocent babies that i'm sure to many people it appears that
01:08:58.520 you can be both catholic and pro-choice he is not alone from the man behind the covet lockdowns to
01:09:06.200 the people pushing dangerous gender ideologies onto the youth of america they all have a glaring thing
01:09:11.720 in common they are catholic this is an important reminder that being catholic alone doesn't cut it
01:09:19.480 these are the sorts of things we are told in polite society to not bring up you know the difficult and
01:09:25.240 unpleasant things but if we are going to be men and women for this time in history we need to stop
01:09:31.160 pretending that the church of nice is a winning proposition we must always speak and act in charity
01:09:37.320 but never mistake charity for cowardice it is safe to say that over the past few years i've gained quite
01:09:43.160 the reputation for speaking my mind i never envisioned myself nor wanted to have this sort of a platform
01:09:49.880 but god has given it to me so i have no other choice but to embrace it and preach more
01:09:55.000 hard truths about accepting your lane and staying in it the world around us says that we should keep
01:10:00.360 our beliefs to ourselves whenever they go against the tyranny of diversity equity and inclusion we fear
01:10:07.160 speaking truth because now unfortunately truth is in the minority what part of that if you're a catholic
01:10:15.960 and the christian what part of that is wrong and listen to what he said first of all he's at a catholic
01:10:24.200 college he's a catholic talking about the catholic religion and theology they say you have freedom of
01:10:34.040 speech they say you have freedom of religion you just keep it in your church he's keeping it in the
01:10:41.320 church he's speaking at a catholic college so there's lie number one from the left they do not want you to
01:10:50.600 speak your mind about religion even in the your own house of worship in your own college for the church
01:11:01.560 second thing he said that i think is so important i never wanted nor never thought i would have
01:11:11.080 a a voice or a platform but the lord gave me this platform and i have no other choice
01:11:19.880 i feel exactly the same way the things i say a lot of times stew will know you can always tell because
01:11:30.680 i pause a long time before saying it and that's when stew's looking at me like oh dear god what are
01:11:35.640 you gonna say and it's when i'm weighing lord i'm praying quickly lord yes no and uh i try to do
01:11:46.440 what he asks me to do because this is his platform you've listened to this show i am not good enough
01:11:54.680 to be where i am in in this industry in the hall of fame really with you know a massive show i'm not
01:12:04.040 talented enough god gave me this platform and he gave you whatever platform you have and if you if you
01:12:14.040 want to be a person that is a person of of righteousness and uh and significance to where
01:12:25.560 you can go home when you die and the lord will say thank you good job good job you have to speak out
01:12:35.720 and say the things the way he said them he wasn't he wasn't saying anything but what he believes is the
01:12:43.560 truth he believes in god he believes that another catholic is not living the catholic faith even the pope
01:12:55.080 would tell you that you can't be pro-life and abortion and also be a catholic in good standing
01:13:02.680 pro-choice yeah yeah pro yeah pro-choice sorry um now let me play the second cut here from him
01:13:09.960 the ladies present today congratulations on an amazing accomplishment you should be proud of all
01:13:16.280 that you have achieved to this point in your young lives i want to speak directly to you briefly because
01:13:21.720 i think it is you the women who have had the most diabolical lies told to you how many of you are
01:13:27.160 sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are
01:13:32.360 going to get in your career some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world but i would
01:13:37.400 venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you
01:13:42.440 will bring into this world i can tell you that my beautiful wife isabel would be the first to say
01:13:48.040 that her life truly started when she began living her vocation as a wife and as a mother i'm on this
01:13:54.680 stage today and able to be the man i am because i have a wife who leans into her vocation i'm beyond
01:14:02.040 blessed with the many talents god has given me but it cannot be overstated that all of my success
01:14:08.680 is made possible because a girl i met in band class back in middle school
01:14:16.440 would convert to the faith become my wife and embrace one of the most important titles of all
01:14:22.440 homemaker stop this is this is the way that's been reported oh my gosh yeah this is so incredibly
01:14:32.520 beautiful he's not saying women shouldn't work he's saying that most women he's he's guessing not all
01:14:41.560 most women are most excited about their marriage and their children guys may not be
01:14:48.440 happy because they're they're we're not built the same but i will tell you when i was 20 that was not
01:14:56.120 what i was excited about when i was 30 that's not what i was excited about when i was 40 and i started
01:15:02.440 living a good life and really living and really have enough wisdom i can tell you now all the accolades
01:15:12.440 all of the accomplishments everything means nothing compared to my children they are the number one
01:15:21.960 thing uh that i think about that i i i regret doing things you know i've screwed up my kids because i did
01:15:31.880 this it is it's it's the only thing it is truly the only thing and to deny that is is
01:15:42.040 criminal it's criminal we are made to procreate mom's intent are i mean think of how think of how god
01:15:54.120 came up with the way for a woman to feed her baby when she feeds her baby breastfeeds she's holding
01:16:01.480 and in the way you have to hold the baby to breastfeed the baby is looking into the mother's eyes
01:16:07.880 eyes i mean this is what we were built for you can do other things and that's fine
01:16:15.400 by the way i i don't want to announce something outside i don't want to tell you who but my wife
01:16:19.560 has been nominated for homemaker of the uh year nationally by a big organization and she's just
01:16:27.560 honored and when they announce it then you know i'll announce it but uh she's so honored and she said
01:16:33.800 glenn i don't have any i don't have anything to say what i i said honey take the word homemaker out
01:16:40.520 because it sounds so from 1950s you're a ceo and she is she's a ceo and i can't run this house in our
01:16:51.320 life i really can't i call her she's gone for a week everything falls apart and i'm like honey what do you
01:16:56.040 how what what happens now what do i do now who is that she's a ceo but she's a ceo of our children
01:17:03.640 in our home in our life that is important and he's getting so much heat for this but i just want
01:17:10.600 you to hear it's the vast minority who have nothing to do with it that are complaining listen to the
01:17:17.960 end of the speech as he gets a standing ovation make no mistake you are entering into mission
01:17:23.720 territory in a post-god world but you were made for this and with god by your side and a constant
01:17:29.960 striving for virtue within your vocation you too can be a saint christ is king to the heights

01:21:17.080 just play something i saw yesterday on i don't know uh uh instagram or something uh cut nine
01:21:23.560 please it's a comedian exposing a woman who is dead serious about a problem she has listen to this oh
01:21:31.400 let's play a fun game if you were a country and you were looking for behaviors or things that you saw
01:21:35.880 in another country which would make you know that that country is ripe to be taken over and we should
01:21:40.040 go get it what are those types of behaviors you guys would look my son does identify as a cat but i
01:21:44.840 i cannot take him to a vet because i tried that and the veterinarian told me that because he has
01:21:51.800 human anatomy that he does not know how to to work on him or diagnose him with anything
01:21:59.000 and he legally cannot so and while i do think that is a form of discrimination
01:22:04.920 because you know my son if he says he's a cat he is a cat
01:22:08.920 um and he needs to be treated like that like one you know but um i'm not gonna press charges
01:22:19.080 because i know that he could lose his license if i if he did work on my son so um i'm not gonna
01:22:27.480 i'm not gonna try to sue him or anything so don't worry
01:22:29.560 but this is something that i want to raise awareness on because i do think that people
01:22:36.920 that identify as an animal should be able to go to the vet
01:22:43.640 okay so uh i think we're healthy america i think we're wow that's not a sign of our

01:26:58.440 well great to be back happy friday thank you um yesterday uh the governor did something that
01:27:05.320 i am very grateful for uh he pardoned daniel perry who shot and killed a black lives matter
01:27:13.240 protester in self-defense a jury in 2023 found that he was guilty tell the story and why it was
01:27:23.000 logical and important to pardon him well so i called on his i called for his pardon immediately
01:27:30.040 when he was convicted you have to realize where he's at first of all he's in austin travis county
01:27:35.080 one of the most liberal soros funded da's in the country and for people that don't know austin is
01:27:43.080 the closest thing you can get to san francisco uh in texas yes we hate to say it that way but it's true
01:27:51.720 it's a super liberal city yeah uh and that you know justice there is not justice like it used to
01:27:58.120 be it's it's very political and uh so they prosecuted this guy and i can tell you somebody who's done some
01:28:04.440 training with uh on shooting and and having doing simulations where you have hostage situations those
01:28:12.040 decisions that you have to make when somebody's pointing a gun at you you're probably too late and
01:28:16.760 if you if you wait for somebody to fire you're very likely dead especially if they are ar-15 so
01:28:23.160 this guy was ended up in the middle of and with it he was a driver and he ended up in the middle of a
01:28:29.640 protest uh with blm and black lives matter and then surrounding his car right surrounding his car
01:28:36.840 he thought i mean you're talking about intent you know those we've seen it a million times and
01:28:41.480 yeah and there was damage people got hurt probably got hurt it wasn't like they were all peaceful
01:28:45.400 protests most of them weren't so yeah i mean it's true it's just nothing ever happened to any of
01:28:50.680 those people that that i know of that that did the the property image and hurt other people so
01:28:56.120 the the guy the the guy with the the the weapon pointed it at him and and perry shot him and defended
01:29:03.960 himself and look who knows what would have happened who knows what the guy they're saying the guy didn't
01:29:08.200 have any ammunition how do you know if you're it that's that's what they said and you know that's what
01:29:14.040 the prosecutors tried i gotta tell you if a cop points a gun i'm holding a gun it's empty even if
01:29:22.920 it's a plastic gun that looks like a gun and i'm pointing it at a cop and he shoots me he's right to
01:29:31.400 shoot me i'm stupid for pointing a gun loaded unloaded a toy it doesn't matter exactly and you've
01:29:41.000 nailed it on the head and somehow um this guy ends up getting convicted 25 years in prison she's
01:29:47.960 merely protecting himself you cannot know if you wait for the other person to shoot especially for
01:29:53.960 the ar-50 you are likely dead you have to defend yourself and you have to make a split second decision
01:30:00.440 which is not an easy decision so he was convicted by a jury of his peers and yesterday governor abbott
01:30:13.960 did what you've been asking for for a while pardoned him a is there a reason why it took
01:30:20.840 this long because he was convicted in 2023 and what are the ramifications of the pardon
01:30:26.360 uh i applaud governor for what he's done yeah and i and i do too he did the right thing so it it's not
01:30:32.840 up to governor abbott initially to make the pardon he appoints the board the board of pardon and paroles
01:30:38.440 and then they have to look at it they have to analyze it however long they take they take there's
01:30:42.600 nothing that we can do about who's on that board and i mean abbott appoints them but as far as what they
01:30:48.040 need to go through what process so they went through their process it took you know longer than i would
01:30:52.360 have hoped but they at least went through the process and then abbott can agree with it or not
01:30:58.040 agree with it and he he went with it so you know look he put the right people on the board that took
01:31:03.320 this seriously spent their time and and commuted this guy's sentence and pardoned and then abbott was
01:31:08.680 able to pardon him so i i applaud that justice actually can happen in this country but sometimes
01:31:15.160 it's not in a in a liberal democratic court in austin so um when they did this i mean it it's been
01:31:22.280 you know almost a year since he's been um uh found guilty and he's been in jail um when when they
01:31:29.800 did this they started that process right away let me ask it this way they did due diligence i mean
01:31:36.680 they tore this it wasn't something like you know i read this in the paper and i think this is wrong
01:31:41.160 what do you think bill they they did worked hard on the diligence right yeah they took it seriously i
01:31:48.680 mean just from the time that it took to get this done this didn't happen quickly this guy has still
01:31:54.040 been in jail for i think well over a year so it's not like it was some you know little half half um
01:32:02.280 half a half a little amount of time this they took it seriously and they took some time and trying to
01:32:06.280 figure this out well was this justice and i think they got the right answer and i'm glad we have this
01:32:10.840 process and this is a really this is a huge change in texas i mean we are we are a right to carry state
01:32:18.840 open carry without a license um we are a we're a state that has the castle doctrine and it is we hold
01:32:27.320 true to that here's a guy who was was shooting in self-defense uh and it went to the court and they found
01:32:35.960 him guilty that that in texas that's massive isn't it yeah it is massive and we we have not only
01:32:44.520 the castle doctrine that allows you to defend your home if somebody comes in you don't have to like
01:32:48.200 ask them if they come into your home you have a right to defend it you don't have to wait for them
01:32:51.080 to shoot you and the same is true if it's called stand your ground doctrine if somebody has a weapon
01:32:57.400 that is pointed at you look this guy had a right the guy with the ar-50 had a right to carry the weapon
01:33:03.000 but should he have carried a weapon and should he have pointed it um that's i mean that creates
01:33:07.720 if you've got that kind of weapon and you're pointing it you should not expect that somebody
01:33:12.200 might be worried that you're going to shoot him it's crazy to have to wait to shoot you before
01:33:16.600 you can actually exercise your right to defend yourself and he didn't pay any price for brandishing
01:33:21.080 a firearm as far as i know no prosecution and no question of him carrying a weapon you think like
01:33:28.520 austin and other places would have gone not some of the democratic politicians that are calling abbott
01:33:32.680 and saying calling him out on this saying that you know he's a white nationalist or something
01:33:36.840 what what about the guy that actually had the weapon why does that why do they never talk about that they
01:33:41.880 never talk about it uh does this establish any precedent in law at all in texas is this something
01:33:50.600 that's going to come and haunt us this uh this ruling by the jury and judge uh you know it's austin i
01:33:59.400 think we're going to be haunted by austin for a long time uh it won't affect other no no no i
01:34:05.560 you know it's an individual jury ruling and so no other place is required to prosecute and convict
01:34:11.880 and put people in prison for self-defense you're not as a matter of fact it's a violation of the
01:34:16.360 law to do that and it doesn't hold any kind of precedent at all good um can i change the subject and
01:34:21.640 i and unfair because we didn't alert you that i would talk about this so i don't know if you're
01:34:26.200 those are my favorite topics the ones that are good uh i know uh have you been watching the trump
01:34:31.320 trial in new york i was there i was uh i showed up like two weeks ago i think i'm the first person
01:34:37.480 to show up and i and i went there and i was if you want to know my opinion i was stunned like i knew it
01:34:43.640 was bad but when i i sat there in the morning and i i i went into the room of the president his lawyers
01:34:49.560 and i kind of pulled his lawyers aside i said i understand why you don't object to hearsay
01:34:53.400 and they said well we're not we're not even we're not allowed to object it i said what are you
01:34:56.680 talking about you have to object to hearsay they said no we're we're prevented by some rule that made
01:35:00.120 no sense to me and sure enough we go back in and they tried to object they said objection i think
01:35:05.160 they were just trying to show me and uh they objected and the judge said overrule and i'm like
01:35:10.280 don't you have to state your objection before it's overruled you didn't even let them state the
01:35:14.040 objection right so they say object and then the this the way it works at least on tv i object your honor on
01:35:21.320 what grounds and then they have to say it and then he says overruled or sustained and it he's
01:35:27.720 not asking the defense and i understand he's not even asking the uh the prosecution right
01:35:37.960 i'd never so of course i only saw one objection the whole day because it was overruled without it
01:35:42.360 without them stating what the objection was which i i've been in court enough to know how objections
01:35:48.840 work i'm not i don't typically do litigation but i know enough about like you know hearsay and it's
01:35:54.520 pretty basic right objection you that's hearsay and the judge is supposed to give you a ruling on
01:35:58.840 that based on the law and the rules of evidence and guess what that never was allowed that i saw that's
01:36:04.440 insane unbelievable how do you do you see the uh testimony yesterday from uh uh cohen
01:36:12.920 i did not see the testimony yeah i'd love to hear your opinion on that uh he's he i mean even cnn said
01:36:22.360 they've never seen uh a witness cut in half like this he was caught in his own lie uh about the phone
01:36:32.440 call that he made i mean the the prosecution just barbecued him in in new york is it like austin do you think
01:36:42.920 facts will matter when they're that clear here's what i'd say i think in general if you have a
01:36:50.920 pretty liberal jury pool many of them have already decided when they walked in and that's why they've
01:36:55.000 got them in that spot however there's a lot of jurors and you can just hope and pray that one of
01:37:00.360 them at least will have the courage to actually listen to the testimony and listen to the evidence
01:37:05.000 if there is any and make the right decision about this and realize this is something we've never seen
01:37:10.600 before where we're not just in new york but all these other places where a former president is
01:37:15.800 being prosecuted for things that happened a long time ago and it's all being prosecuted six months
01:37:20.440 before the election there's no accident for that no one last thing um you know our universities around
01:37:26.520 the country have been set on fire we we know we've tracked it we know they're being funded by
01:37:32.920 the deep left george soros really bad organizations uh they're very well planned they're planning on
01:37:41.560 you know all kinds of things uh this uh fall uh are we prepared for what could happen in the fall
01:37:50.840 i don't know if we're prepared um because i mean all of this is sort of unprecedented and it's hard
01:37:58.760 when you don't control all the levers of government whether it's you know the da's and
01:38:02.520 all these big cities or certain areas that are that are progressive like austin or san antonio
01:38:09.320 it's hard to be fully prepared because we have different people in leadership that have a different
01:38:14.920 agenda and there's certainly people that are sympathetic to hamas and who would just as soon see you know
01:38:20.040 have israel just you know destroyed uh ken thank you so much have we made any progress on
01:38:27.560 on securing the vote you know what i told you when i was on there last time my biggest fear i just
01:38:34.200 saw an article today that said between um 10 and 27 percent of the illegals have that have come into
01:38:40.040 the country have are registered to vote i don't know what the number is i don't know if that's an
01:38:44.360 accurate number but i truly believe that's the game get them elected get them get them here that's
01:38:48.760 why they started day one of the biden administration telling the cartels bring your people and get them
01:38:53.640 here because they want to get as many registered to vote because only three states actually have laws
01:38:57.960 that have been upheld that allow for citizenship to if you're a non-citizen to exclude you from voting
01:39:04.920 so only three states have that three states have tried to pass beyond that they're in the middle of
01:39:11.240 litigation i think kansas and there's a few others so potentially we could have in alabama i think there's
01:39:16.200 a total of six states that have tried we had it in texas glenn but you'll know this name dade
01:39:21.560 feeling a republican speaker killed it for the democrats so that we don't have any protection
01:39:26.920 from non-citizen vote because dade feeling went out of his way to make sure that non-citizens
01:39:32.920 illegals could vote in texas well that's really disheartening uh thank you so thank you so much ken for
01:39:41.400 everything you do keep us up to speed on these things and and anything we can do to help um
01:39:46.280 you know let me just say this one thing it is just it is disheartening but there is hope because um in
01:39:51.400 the end we know that god can do anything so i know just like the founders had no they had no hope and
01:39:56.600 they had no hope that france was going to help them and guess what yeah i know here we are today
01:40:00.840 everything but god thank you so much i appreciate it i i don't mean to discourage anybody uh you know i
01:40:07.080 think you felt discouraged about how out of control our country is but if we all go out and vote i
01:40:13.640 don't i mean everybody who cares about the republic this is the moment i mean the campaign slogan should
01:40:20.680 be save the republic not make america great again save the republic we all have to go out and uh and
01:40:29.480 vote all right our sponsor this half hour is leaf home filter you know those jobs that you never get

01:47:46.520 total breakdown of our system um but i'd like to hear your opinion on it your take this is what happened
01:47:51.880 in congress between marjorie uh taylor green and and who was it uh connelly oh jasmine crockett crockett
01:48:01.400 yeah um and aoc in there as well right and aoc so aos sorry marjorie taylor green uh had the floor
01:48:09.960 and uh crockett interrupted her and he she said you can't see the truth because your false eyelashes are
01:48:16.680 getting in the way that started an absolute cat fight here's part of it oh you just you just voted
01:48:23.160 to do it order order i'm trying to get clarification look at calm down calm down no no no no because
01:48:31.160 this is what y'all do so i'm trying to get you're not recognized i can't hear you with your yelling
01:48:36.920 don't want calm down no please don't tell me to calm down stop you know what i thought my first thought
01:48:42.840 when i saw this was this is a freaking denny's fight you know when you see those on on social media
01:48:51.080 where they're arguing about pancakes and all these people just get up in arms and they start throwing
01:48:57.240 stuff at each other and it's a knock knock down drag out fight that you see you've seen those a million
01:49:03.160 times right stew i've seen those videos here sure that's what i thought this was what it what do you
01:49:10.200 think this says about us oh wow that's a that's how much time do we have um you know honestly like
01:49:18.200 there's a lot of different ways you can go here i mean i think we have kind of gotten completely away
01:49:23.960 from a a government that even is serious in any way in any way um but like what i don't know i and
01:49:32.200 this might be because i'm reading this jonathan height book that's out now the anxious generation
01:49:36.200 how is it i haven't started yet really good i mean it's really really good it's i i i am i am
01:49:42.520 definitely down the road where i believe he's right on what he's talking about and if you don't know
01:49:46.120 the concept of the book basically he's talking about the major change that we've had since about
01:49:51.160 2015 2012 to 2015 uh when it comes to you know social yeah social yeah when it comes to society
01:49:59.880 you know is really really central uh to the change when it comes to iphones and um you know social
01:50:06.360 networks and it's the sort of stuff that you kind of feel is true you've seen the difference but like
01:50:12.120 he has all the data to back it up and it's the the change in anxiety and the change in depression
01:50:17.000 and suicidal thoughts and almost all the negatives come from this one major world experiment we all
01:50:27.080 engaged on yeah and with really no idea how it was going to turn out and now we're finding out how
01:50:32.440 it's going to turn out yeah but i'm sure now that we have ai it's going to get even better because
01:50:37.080 we're about to do another one another big experiment let's see how that one works out that is honestly what
01:50:41.320 we've done we've experimented especially on our children we don't talk to each other anymore i you
01:50:48.760 know i i hate to say this you know they say you know be interested in what your kids are interested
01:50:53.800 in and listen and i try um but i gotta tell you when when my son comes and says oh dad i saw this thing
01:51:01.080 on the internet this one guy was saying this and then the other guy said this and it's not of political
01:51:08.360 importance or you know religious or eternal or anything like that it's just garbage i have
01:51:15.560 the hardest time caring because it's garbage it doesn't mean anything it's the worst of our society
01:51:24.360 yeah i i have no idea if this made it into your world or not glenn but i don't know some of these
01:51:29.560 sites that i you know you read you see people like posting stories and there's been this back and
01:51:34.120 forth between like multiple rappers posting diss tracks of each other basically does anyone know
01:51:41.000 drake kendrick lamar i i don't know yeah i have to i have to tell you i'm you know i'm down with all
01:51:45.640 that i come from the mean streets and uh that's true that's uh but because of my eye surgery i've
01:51:51.160 i haven't seen it so fill me in no i will not fill you in because i have absolutely no interest in it
01:51:59.560 and i couldn't it kept popping up everywhere every news news sources tweets uh social media and all
01:52:07.560 this nonsense and i'm like i don't care why they don't like each other why do i keep having why is
01:52:14.760 this in my face constantly and there's so many stories like that right now it is so crazy have you
01:52:20.760 ever you know i once in a while once in a great while i will look at what's trending on x or whatever
01:52:27.880 yes i never know those stories or care about any of those stories often i don't even know the people
01:52:34.280 involved exactly right right and and so i don't know what's scary is we're talking about saving the
01:52:40.840 republic and what's trending is all of that crap yeah and they have no idea what we're even talking
01:52:48.120 about right and that and i it was a circuitous route to get there but the your question was what
01:52:55.160 do you make of this clip in congress and what it feels like right now is that we have a bunch of
01:53:00.520 twitter users in congress that's what it feels like to me like and i and like i will be honest with you
01:53:06.760 at times some of them i like right because when they're on my side and they're wise asses and i kind
01:53:12.840 of like it sometimes okay i'll be honest about it i can get sucked into it as well but like this is not
01:53:18.600 a serious nation like no this they're fighting over eyelash length they're swearing at each other
01:53:26.760 aoc is trying to form sentences i would i swear to you i think it almost i we are one degree away
01:53:36.280 from one of them getting up and just punching the other and having a denny's and having yeah yeah i mean
01:53:41.640 maybe we should move congress to denny's that might make it might make more sense delicious pancakes
01:53:47.880 and just idiotic fights go people jumping over booths at each other because that's basically where
01:53:53.800 we are and like at you know what the real you know what yeah i was gonna say we're just prioritizing
01:53:59.720 performance a little bit too much here right like we we're an idiotic talk show right like we're
01:54:03.960 supposed to say things that are you know maybe out there sometimes to get people to listen i don't know
01:54:08.520 what we do i mean i try we try to present information in a way that is interesting to
01:54:14.680 people and also with the goal of you know as you point out saving the republic it's why we're in this
01:54:20.360 business right i mean it's why we got into this there's a lot better there's a lot of better ways
01:54:24.440 of making money than you know talking about conservative politics believe me but like when you get into
01:54:30.520 this world where we're taking people and putting them in constantly we're filling seemingly every
01:54:36.040 congressional uh conversation with people who are just looking for the best tweet possible to say
01:54:42.920 verbally that is not a way to run a civilization and i think it comes back to the jonathan height book
01:54:48.840 it's not just affecting kids it's affecting every element of our society and we're prioritizing idiocy
01:54:55.160 far too often are we getting better as a civilization or are we going down the toilet are we better you
01:55:04.440 remember remember the republic or the democrats ran because donald trump was just nothing was normal and
01:55:11.080 joe biden's going to make things normal again are we more normal now than we were four years ago because i don't
01:55:19.160 i don't think so and it's it's not all because of biden it's not all because of trump it's not all
01:55:24.920 because of politics we are sick and no one is addressing this i don't even think our churches are
01:55:31.640 truly addressing this we are a sick very sick i had a friend over um from israel last night and we spent the
01:55:39.240 night talking and he talked he lost members of his family in the holocaust and they they lived in germany
01:55:46.440 and uh he was talking about how his grandfather who survived but everybody else in the family died
01:55:54.760 his grandfather uh still after the holocaust still said you know germany is great and we're the best
01:56:04.360 at science and you know if you really want to cure a headache you got to use bare aspirin oh oh okay they
01:56:12.920 helped kill children you know what i mean you were there they killed jew bear you know bear and its
01:56:20.520 original company in germany they were responsible for a lot of the bad stuff that happened and he said
01:56:27.000 i've never understood how my grandfather can't understand that germany became a a science-based
01:56:36.440 leading the world in science uh and became science-based and then lost god and that's what
01:56:45.560 the problem was he said i could never get him to connect that and it it's so bizarre it we're doing
01:56:53.320 the same thing we're a technological wonderland in this country and our science is taking us to
01:57:03.560 extraordinarily bad places and our society is falling away from god and traditional values
01:57:11.320 we don't recover from this without god we just don't recover yeah you you are reminding me of a
01:57:20.040 speech by antinan scalia that he made on holocaust remembrance day years ago where he talked about
01:57:26.280 if you look at the holocaust and you don't focus on the fact that this society that produced the
01:57:33.160 holocaust was the most educated elitist sort of society that that believed they had progressed
01:57:41.480 past all these terrible things they they they've had past human nature right they had progressed
01:57:47.960 beyond the limitations of human nature they had scientifically solved it and if you don't focus
01:57:54.200 on that part that that society is the one responsible for the worst atrocities that we've seen in all of
01:58:01.080 our lifetimes and beyond you are missing the plot and you know what's crazy stew john hopkins was the
01:58:08.440 first german uh school in america german university in america it was the progressives went over they
01:58:20.280 copied the german stuff brought it over in i don't know when john hopkins was was founded but john
01:58:27.960 john hopkins is the original source of all of the same poison that was in uh in in germany and then
01:58:38.760 it spread next to columbia and columbia taught all of the teachers through this progressive way i've got
01:58:46.040 a podcast coming out this uh summer a series of six that talks about how all of this happened and we we
01:58:52.360 tracked it and it's phenomenal and if you don't if you don't look at the fact that german the german
01:59:00.280 society was run not by just a madman it was run and pulled off by the elites of society who thought
01:59:12.280 they were better than the rest of everybody else and they can pick and choose who died who lived who
01:59:18.440 could procreate you know who had to be destroyed as a race it was the elites that did it uh and and
01:59:26.600 we're headed down that same path and gosh it carries so much more weight in my head now than it did when
01:59:34.040 i said this in 2000 i don't know nine or ten if we don't turn around
01:59:43.160 evil is not going to just destroy our country it's perverting our country and the all of our technology
01:59:54.680 all of our elites they won't be destroyed they'll be perverted and in charge and with our technology
02:00:04.440 we will make the germans look like rookies we've got to turn around and turn back to god
